However, the DVDRW or PATA disk connected to the ATA controller is not recognized. Just a tip, but it seems that support for this controller is not yet implemented ? Anybody got it working on some other branch ?

The computer boots nicely, mounts disks, starts local daemons until it comes to

Code:

Configuring syscons: keyrate blanktime.

Then there is a 30 (or so) second pause and:

Code:

Starting cron.
...

After all is done I can normally log in. So the question is the small delay.

There are some BIOS settings related to this, I don't remember them out of the top of my head ...

Try running the commands from /etc/rc.d/syscons manually, what happens if you do?
